For the time being yes unless the Steem prices change and make it more profitable to use a bot. The only bot that is decent is the ocdb bot bit it is white listed and you have to be invites. That one is a $1 profit on $8 after curation. Not much but at least it's a profit and not a loss.
Thank you for taking the time to answer! I was considering giving a bot a shot to gain a bit more of an audience, but I'll just convert over to SP and work on organic growth through curation and engagement.
You will do just fine. By not using bots someone will notice you. They have eyes like hawks and you will be looked after. I have been on 8 months now and only flying in the last 6 weeks.It is a struggle up to that point but don't give up it is a matter of proving your self that you are not here for the quick buck. There have been over a million users pass through over two years so they like to know who is going to be around in 6 months. I can understand it and once you get it ,it will happen.
Thanks for helping insight and encouragement. I'm definitely in this for the long haul. Honestly, I care far less about the financial implications of blockchain social media, and far more about the cultural side of things.
I'm looking forward to learning more from you in the future. Thanks again!
It is not possible to identify one bot to be profitable as its ratio keeps on changing every time. One bot is profitable on one turn in the next turn it may end up in loss. Let’s assume a bot is giving upvote worth 1$ if it receives 2 bid of .1 $ each its vote will be distributed in the both bid in ration of .5$ each and both will end up in profitable. In the next round upvote worth is the same but if it receives bids valuing 1$ or more in next the bot will become in loss.
Considering above I will see which bot or bots are giving best profits in the round and will invest accordingly in two three or more bots.
If you make good contents and engage to build your audience. You don't need any vote buying. People will eventually upvote you.
It's a short term gain and you do not produce any value to the Steem ecosystem in the long run. The only entity that will profit are the vote sellers.
Unless you are buying votes to raise attention for your posts, what is the point of buying votes? Lemme ask you, what will be the long term value of Steem if you can use steem to buy steem?
Do you think your local economy can function if you can go a special shop and buy 2 rupees with 1 rupee, rinse and repeat?
Vote sellers and buyers are ruining everything that's good about Steem.
My sentiments exactly. I think that the "slow but steady" activity and writing consistently (or in big bursts like I seem to prefer, haha) is the way to go. If one believes in th platform, they are here for the long haul and eventually will get rewarded for their integrity and dedication.

Very interesting. So you would recommend I convert the Steem and SBD I hold into SP for the fastest growth?

DON'T BOTHER TRYING!! YOU'RE WASTING YOUR TIME.

Though i have not really tried using a bot to get an upvotes berore but if i am giving an option to use
a bot,i think i will choose minnowbooster,i like the
way the bots is operated and they have so much steempower delegated by some people and
those that delegated steempower to them get
some certain returns on their invested steempower which they delegated to the bot,but i
do not like the idea of using bots to get upvotes,i think the best way to get upvotes is to continue to
write quality content till steemians start noticing you and giving you an upvotes...

I would advice you to use “jerrybanfield” if you want to buy an upvote,the steemian has very
good vote values which will meet your needs and
the reason why you want to buy the upvotes and also he upvotes faster and his services are cool
and that would make you get his attention and probably get free upvotes from him in the future if
your content is very good...i also love the bot “appreciator”the bot too is a good one for buying
of upvoting and making your content more popular...
